well.. you tell me! it isn't Africans is it? my point is Africans lived without christianity before the white man introduced it to them, infact, Africans lived peacefully and in unity before without christianity.

I believe westerner invented christianity, you can prove otherwise. Anyway, i couldn't careless about who brought christianity to westerners. The debate is about how chrisitianity came to Africa.

A lot of unverified claims made up there...Africans did not live in peace before Christianity came. Till today Africans still practice their bloody rituals which came down from their ancestors. The sacrifice of twins, the sacrifice of virgins, the sacrifice of babies, the burying of servants and wives along with kings, the tribal wars, etc. A very good instance of an evil in our present day that has held away since times past is fusion of voodoo and human trafficking, at least we agree that voodoo is an import from our distant part (https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2018/03/24/opinion/sunday/voodoo-curse-human-traffickers.amp.html).

How do you define westerners? Christianity evolved from Judaism and was spread by the 12 apostles who were Jews and their motivation for spreading Christianity was the death, burial and resurrection of Christ which they witnessed and were convinced about the message of Christ to the point that they laid their lives for the gospel. Yes, some have attempted to corrupt Christianity and use it as a tool for enslavement but you must realise that the same is the case for Islam, Voodoo etc which have been used by people for nefarious purposes.

And why are you shaking your head?

Because it is my head and I can do whatever I like with it!

PervertProphet:
The ramblings of an Olodo.

The true Messiah in the first century arrived on the continent of Africa in Egypt thousand of years before even the Europeans even remotely heard of Christianity meaning Africans first encountered the true Messiah while the Europeans were still Druid Witches and Wizards. The type you watch in Harry Potter films.

The true significance of the Messiah is not in what Skin colour he had. The true significance lies in the fact that all major religions agree that He lived the kind of life not ordinary for a man. Even Islam agrees that He was Faultless unlike Muhammad that sinned. Islam said He spoke from the Cradle unlike no other. Islam called Him Al-Masih for no explainable reason as no other prophet of the Jews that they copied was called Messiah by them.

Jesus is the English of Yeshua which is Iesous(Greek) just like Ayo is the Yoruba of Blessing. Our Forefathers never wrote in Western typical characters. All our African languages borrowed the White man type of letter characterization. Show me proof of any African language writing our languages in Western styled letter characters like J, É, B, GB, etc before the 11th Century. Open any Yoruba or Igbo Bible. The Yoruba Bible renders the Word, Jesus as Jesu Kristi. You want to tell me Yoruba men before the 11th Century wrote in Western styled characterization like Jesus before then?

Clown. There were Orthodox Ethiopian and Egyptian (African) Churches before the Catholic Church so the Masonic rubbish you wrote up there is no name giver of the word, Jesus. Clown, you think you are dealing with some illiterate. Even the Latin alphabet has only 23 letters and the letter J is one of the letter missing in the Latin alphabet that is why in the Latin. The word Jesus is written as lesus. You can confirm from the Latin Vulgate Bibles if you have access to one so you can't even claim the White Masonic guys did all the hocus pocus you wrote.

I suggest you go read more instead of coming here with incorrect nonsensical "facts" that you watched on some Black Hebrew Israelites, Nation of Islam or Black Kemetic Youtube channel. You will be buried here with facts.

Bible deformers ko! Bible deformers ni!
Which Bible is "undeformed"? Let us start with that.

Dude! You should change your moniker to SavageProphet because that suits you better...killing the muslims with their own sources, facts and truly interesting lines of argument.

Calitoscassius:
What kinda senseless question is this?

How did Africans come across christianity without the westerners?

Were Africans christians before the westerners brought it to Africa and used it to brainwash and enslave them?

Your assertion begs an obvious question: Who brought Christianity to the so called westerners?

They cited "violent conversions" but when a child is made to undergo hormonal therapy for sex change they won't call that "violent conversion". When a person undergoes surgery to do sex change they won't refer to that as "violent conversion" but when a person, of their own free will, decides to submit himself or herself for some sort of sex or gender therapy aimed at adjusting what they feel does not jive with their perception of what is right or wrong they refer to that process as "violent conversion"...I am not surprised. A day will come being a Christian will be considered a crime punishable by death. A day will come Christians will be hunted like game and killed for practicing their right to religion and association...when that day comes I hope many of those villifying TB Joshua now will rejoice and be happy...until their joy will be cut short by the sign of the coming of the son of man in the clouds...

Finally.
Where are those prophets of doom, that says the Democrats are war mongers ?

Prophet of which doom? Were they not the ones who encouraged crises in countries all of the world? I thought he was all about rolling back all of Trump's policies? Why didn't he roll back this policy? Why is he withdrawing troops? Mumu should have left them there?

Find out where you goofed. Find out where the employer goofed. Adjust your application strategy based on what you have learned. Improve your soft and hard skills. Follow GOD's direction at all times...and soon enough you will be smiling at your new work place!

JuanDeDios:
Well, some parts of it are. Just like the Quran.

Point those parts out and explain how they are misogynistic!

Marytj:
Based on what you have said you are not overreacting neither are you expecting too much but judging from only what you have said without hearing from your wife wouldn't be a wise or even right approach. Oga, our one sided view suggestions wont help your marriage! With all you said, you don't seem to have discussed all these issues with her, I think you should start from there.

If the woman needs a discussion to know that all these she is doing is utterly wrong then there is fire on the mountain...

OlawaleBammie:
Well,

Sorry, why not do it like an eye for an eye scenario??

If she is not comfortable discussing her business with u, stop funding and imaginary business

If she cant discuss allow u check her fon, den keep ur fon safe from her finger as well and gboju from her fon

If she cant make calls while u re around her den why cant u
Employ thesame tactics,

If she choose to make her papa her next of kin how is dat ur problem?? Use ur trusted brother or father, u can as well us ur mama.

If she feels that u re not worthy of discussing family issue with but rather an outsider den why dont u kuku start executing ur own project on a low key?? Let her also be taken aback wen the result of ur secret plan come out open

Ordinarily men should be a little bit secretive, u disclose some and keep some, the little u keep is what make u a man, u dont always open mouth waaaaaaaa just cus u want to be a pleasing husband, remember u can never please a woman, even ur papa never pleased ur mama.

And all these are character shouldn't cus a tension between u cus u never said she retract from her wifely/homely duties apart from the fact that u said u re in a sexless marriage.

About the sex stuff, (me o, if na me i knkw wetin a go do, na how our forefathers dey do am me go do am, i never said i wil get a second wife o ) but for u, yoruba adage would say..... Toba kowaju sie koota, toba koyin sie koota, toba ku iwo nikan, den tu ero ara e pa.

While this is just it is the perfect recipe to end the marriage...marriage no be beans sha ohhh

...and some ignoramuses will claim that the Bible is misogynistic!

As protests broke out across the country in the name of Black Lives Matter, the group’s co-founder went on a real estate-buying binge, snagging four high-end homes for $3.2 million in the US alone, according to property records.

Patrisse Khan-Cullors, 37, also eyed property in the Bahamas at an ultra-exclusive resort where Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods both have homes, The Post has learned. Luxury apartments and townhouses at the beachfront Albany resort outside Nassau are priced between $5 million and $20 million, according to a local agent.

The self-described Marxist last month purchased a $1.4 million home on a secluded road a short drive from Malibu in Los Angeles, according to a report. The 2,370 square-foot property features "soaring ceilings, skylights and plenty of windows" with canyon views. The Topanga Canyon homestead, which includes two houses on a quarter acre, is just one of three homes Khan-Cullors owns in the Los Angeles area, public records show.

Some fellow activists were taken aback by the real estate revelations.

Hawk Newsome, the head of Black Lives Matter Greater New York City, called for "an independent investigation" to find out how the global network spends its money

"If you go around calling yourself a socialist, you have to ask how much of her own personal money is going to charitable causes," he said. "It’s really sad because it makes people doubt the validity of the movement and overlook the fact that it’s the people that carry this movement."

Last year, Khan-Cullors and spouse Janaya Khan ventured to Georgia to acquire a fourth home — a "custom ranch" on 3.2 rural acres in Conyers featuring a private airplane hangar with a studio apartment above it, and the use of a 2,500-foot "paved/grass" community runway that can accommodate small airplanes.

The three-bedroom, two-bath house, about 30 minutes from Atlanta, has an indoor swimming pool and a separate "RV shop" that can accommodate the repair of a mobile home or small aircraft, according to the real estate listing.

The Peach State retreat was purchased in January 2020 for $415,000, two years after the publication of Khan-Cullors’ best-selling memoir, "When They Call You a Terrorist."

In October, the activist signed "a multi-platform" deal with Warner Bros. Television Group to help produce content for "black voices who have been historically marginalized," she said in a statement.

It is not known how much Khan-Cullors received in compensation in either deal.

Khan-Cullors began her buying spree in L.A. in 2016, a few years after the civil rights movement she started from a hashtag — #blacklivesmatter — with fellow activists Alicia Garza and Opal Tometi began to gain traction around the world.

That year, she bought a three-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home in Inglewood for $510,000. It is now worth nearly $800,000. Khan-Cullors added her wife, the co-founder of Black Lives Movement in Canada, to the deed in a family trust last year. The couple married in 2016.

Two years later, in 2018, Khan-Cullors purchased a four-bedroom home in South Los Angeles, a multi-ethnic neighborhood. Khan-Cullors paid $590,000 for the 1,725 square-foot home, although the price has since climbed to $720,000, according to public records.

Three of the homes were bought in Khan-Cullors’ name, and the Topanga Canyon property was purchased under a limited liability company that she controls, according to public records cited by "Dirt," the real estate blog that first reported the March 30 purchase.

Last year, Khan-Cullors and Khan were spotted in the Bahamas looking for a unit at the Albany, a real estate source who did not want to be identified told The Post. The elite enclave is laid out on "600 oceanside acres" and features a private marina and designer golf course. Current homes for sale include a nearly 8,000 square-foot, six-bedroom townhouse with a media room and marina views. The price is only available upon request, according to the resort’s website.

"People who buy at the Albany are buying their fourth or fifth home," said a resort worker who did not want to be identified. "This is not a second-home residence. It’s extremely high-end, and people are coming here for complete and total privacy."

CHAUVIN TRIAL: MEDICAL EXAMINER WHO PERFORMED AUTOPSY SAYS POLICE PRESSURE WAS MORE THAN FLOYD 'COULD TAKE'

While it’s not clear if Khan-Cullors purchased a property at the island retreat for the super-rich, her mere interest shows just how far she has come from the hard-scrabble Van Nuys neighborhood in L.A. where she spent her childhood with two brothers and a younger sister.

In her memoir, Khan-Cullors describes growing up in a housing project less than a mile from the affluent and largely white neighborhood of Sherman Oaks, a community of wide lawns and pools where "there is nothing that does not appear beautiful and well kept." The four kids were mostly raised by her single mother who worked 16 hours a day to support the family, she writes.

Growing up, Khan-Cullors lived in "a two-story, tan-colored building where the paint is peeling and where there is a gate that does not close properly and an intercom system that never works," she writes. "The only place in my hood to buy groceries is a 7-Eleven."

Khan-Cullors embraced activism and Marxism at a young age. "It started the year I turned twelve," she writes. "That was the year that I learned that being black and poor defined me more than being bright and hopeful and ready."

But she didn’t rise to national prominence until 2013, when she and two other activists protested the not-guilty verdict against George Zimmerman, who shot dead Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager in Florida.

Black Lives Matter protests erupted again in 2020 after the May killing of George Floyd, who died after a Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck during his arrest.

Donations and pledges from corporations and individuals poured into the movement at that point. In February, the BLM non-profit co-founded by Khan-Cullors told the AP that they took in $90 million in 2020, with $21.7 million committed to grant funding and helping 30 black-led groups across the country.

Black Lives Matter leaders would not specify how much money they took in from prominent donors, according to the AP report.

It’s also not clear how much Khan-Cullors makes in salary as one of the leaders of the movement, since its finances are split among both non-profit and for-profit entities and difficult to trace.

Founded by Khan-Cullors and another activist, Kailee Scales, the non-profit Oakland, Calif.-based BLM Global Network Foundation was incorporated in 2017 and claims to have chapters throughout the US, UK and Canada, and a mission "to eradicate White supremacy and build power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities." The group does not have a federal tax exemption and donations are filtered through ActBlue Charities and Thousand Currents, two non-profits that manage the cash.

At the same time that the Khan-Cullors incorporated the non-profit, she also set up the similarly named BLM Global Network, a for-profit which is not required to disclose how much it spends or pays its executives.


Some have criticized the lack of transparency.

Newsome of NYC’s BLM said, "We need black firms and black accountants to go in there and find out where the money is going. He added that his group does not receive any financial support from the BLM Global Network.

Neither Khan-Cullors nor BLM Global Network Foundation returned requests for comment.

EXPECTED:
Dangote and BUA group signed up with FG to work towards massively increasing local cultivation and processing of sugarcane, which is supposed to boost employment and save forex.

ACTUAL:
Both Dangote and BUA are basically net IMPORTERS of refined sugar. Meanwhile, as a SMOKESCREEN, Dangote and BUA got some farmers to plant sugar somewhere annually, which they never bother to harvest.

COMMENT:
Federal Government and NASS which supposed to enforce National Sugar Policy are sleeping. Can somebody wake them up already! SMH

The NASS is sleeping or they have collected their cut...if they did not get their cut I assure you they would have been singing by now!

I'll go for virgin and lazy! A true virgin is a blank slate and she can be programmed for excellence even if she is lazy...

donprinyo:
Demented fellow.

^painment!!! ...e be like Naija sisters don do you strong thing abi...pele!

A Virgin?
A lady has had sex with less than 3 other guys?
A lady has had sex with less than 5 other guys?
A lady has had sex with less than 10 other guys?
A lady has had sex with 10 guys or more?

donprinyo:
Abeg, welcome back to reality. As long as ur partner is not a virgin, just continue from where others stopped

Yea...and when you discover that all your children belong to separate men you come back to nairaland to lament!

Kondomatic:
Nothing.




Whoever a woman dated before I met her or whatever she did with her life during that time is none of my business as long as they won't affect/determine her future.


The only time I would consider quitting is when her ex is my relative

Wow. So you seriously believe what you just said... you forget that they key that opened her padlock yesterday can open it today while you are at work and you may end up raising children that are not yours! Dude wake up ohhh...if she has been a guinea pig for an elaborate sexual experiment she will always a be a guinea pig and you will be just one of the many experimenters...so don't be naive about this matter.

@Kandeed the matter of masturbation is a very strong one because it is connected to one of man's strongest urges. As a Christian, I can only advice you based on what I believe the problem is and how it can be solved from a Christian standpoint...

First I believe that all sins are diseases of the soul and only the presence of God in your soul can cure it. The only ingredient you need is TIME. Time spent in worship, prayer and meditation (not mere reading) on the word. Like all diseases, it will take time to for it to leave your system and like all medicines the presence of God acquired through personal worship, personal prayer and meditation on the word must be acquired at the right dosage and for a good amount of time...

While I believe in the efficacy of deliverance, I also believe that no amount of deliverance can help you escape sexual perversion sustainably. You need to absorb the essence of God continuously. If you can spend at least 5 hours every day doing personal prayer, personal worship and meditation on the word you will invite God into your personal space and if God is in your personal space continuously the disease of your soul will be healed and you will have access to all round wellbeing.

Havesomesense:
If you are not fvcking her well, I mean making her cvm. She's gonna cheat on you.

To make a girl loyal you need to be great in sex and also great in mind games.

She will cheat even if the guy makes her cum until she becomes the cumtroller general...because he'll not always be around her when she is itching for a fix...if I were this guy I would ditch this girl as fast as a bullet exits the barrel of a gun.

I want to appreciate a man that gave me #20000, he said I shouldn't mention his name, he called me and collected my account number, God bless you sir. You will never know sorrow in your entire life and family, amen.

The Tristatehs hospital bill for Echo, ECG and consultation with the CEO is #175,000 with other tests #56k, all together #231k just for tests alone

I'm thinking if I should try another hospital which the money can't be up to that. I have visited my former VC before Prof. Falase private clinic before, he was a big consultant at UCH before he retired, he never requested for special consultation fee and Dr Ogba is a consultant in cardiology too, his fees are normal. I would prefer someone to please help me consult them or finance me to do the tests there. I need your urgent help please. I can't afford #10k in my account now, but the #20k is intact should in case I see more donations, I'll account for every naira I collect here. Please help me


Please don't forget your prayers too, i need it more than before. God bless you everybody

Oh great...just saw the doc

GuyInTheMirror:
You failed to answer the question, when a man waits till he is 40 years old before getting married and he chooses to marry a 25 year old lady, do you not realise that there will be tons of women who will not be able to find husbands ?

If men wed ladies when they are 25 years of age what were the ladies who grew past the age of 25 doing when they were 25 years old or less that made them lesser candidates to be considered for marriage? That is the follow up question you should have asked. No man really wants to marry late. So if men marry late it is because of the obstacles on their way and the perception that marriage is for men who are financially capable. Very few women intend to be a part of the success of struggling men and I am a very good example. Many of the ladies who are now past 30 yet without a man are those who are waiting for the so called "ready made men" who have scaled the hurdles of life and are looking to settle down. Unfortunately these foolish ladies fail to realize that the men who succeed in scaling these hurdles could have done so by the help of another lady and in the case that the successful guy rose to the top all by himself or without the support of any woman you can be rest assured that he will be purchasing a lady and not marrying a lady so he will likely go for the cream of the ladies...young, vibrant, agile, flexible, less used, easily dominated and low budget!

So you see, any lady who does not learn to be a wise helper before she speeds past the age of 25 will ultimately be a liability to herself...and may likely get married to a Mr liability like herself out of desperation!

Growing up
My grandma took it upon herself to tell me that I MUST be someone's wife some day
Nnenna don't sit down while washing!!!!!
Sit like a woman !!!
Don't step outside without permission!!!!
Don't talk when ur brothers are !!!!!!
While the boys are playing, help out in the kitchen !!!
Don't argue!!!
Wash !!!
Sweep!!!!
Clean !!!!
Cook!!!!!
Shut up ,u complain too much !!!!
Don't u know u are a girl !!!!!!!
U shouldn't be heard!!!!!!!
Obey the last order !!!!
That's the mindset I grew up having about being a girl but thank God I'm liberated at last
But is that really true ?

If you learned everything your grandma taught you then you are skilled in a lot of home management and etiquette...those skills will be more useful to you outside your matrimonial home. Learning how to cook and maintaining all round cleanliness could go on to be the inspiration to start a fast selling eatery. Learning to obey and follow rules is necessary to endure the hardship of a command structure at your place of work. Learning to speak less and listen more could easily give you the tactical advantage that would help you survive the politics among your peers. Learning to help out in the kitchen whilst the boys play could help you learn to stand out of the irresponsible crowd and be the one that others look up to for leadership...your grandma may have a totally wrong reason for teaching you these skills but you have to see that these skills could easily be the difference between success and failure some day...

Yesterday a friend of mine (Chioma) discussed how her fiancé took her to see his family .
When she arrived ,the mum just sat outside like nothing new was happening. while his sister (uche) was watching TV .
After sometimes the Guy's sister who she's obviously older than walked up to her and this ensured
Uche: mama asked u to help her wash her cloths ,its at the backyard.
Chioma:No problem, let's go and wash it together
Uche: no!!!,mama said u should wash it alone .

Mind you,this is the first time she's visiting the family .
Her guy didn't utter a single word
She jejely carried her handbag, stepped out ,greeted His mum and walked out .
Later in the day the guy called and was saying all manner of things .
Kai!!!! Na correct slap me for give that guy .

As a man, that guy is an either an idiot or a boy and the lady just dodged a missile that would have destroyed her and her family. Na so that lady go dey wash clothes for the rest of her marital life...I am not against being courteous to your in laws but every man must be naturally territorial or he is a sissy and being territorial means you dont allow anyone exercise authority over your space...not your mom, dad or siblings...

sichri:
Some guys go to school or learn trade, get established financially, then scout for 'not too educated ladies' to marry. Some of the reasons people give to justify their decisions in this regard include that they are more loyal and submissive. That seemed to have worked to an extent in pre-social media era.

These days, nothing can be a grave mistake than marrying an illiterate, semi-literate or half educated lady because of loyalty and submissiveness.

From my observation, these days, 'the not too educated ladies' are the most: insecure, myopic in reasoning, disrespectful and arrogant in marriage. Plus the fact that most times they lack planning & management skills in the face of this harsh economic climate. To avoid unnecessary quarrels, like should marry like, so that they can reason in the same direction.

For me, I would rather marry someone with sharp reasoning and understanding.

Dude when your village people decide to manifest in the form of an educated and intelligent lady...ohhhh brother...You go know sey this life na two. You go know sey difference dey between six and half-a-dozen. As far I am concerned. Educated or uneducated, intelligent or unintelligent...a woman that stands by you, defends you and sacrifices for you at the time of your need is the wife your destiny needs...if you marry based on any other criteria, it will end in premium tears!

GuyInTheMirror:
So what will happen to the women, we have thousands of women almost hitting menopause roaming around without any hope of getting married, while the men go for far younger women after they make money.

A woman on the path of purpose willing to be of help to a fellow sojourner on the path of purpose too will not find it difficult getting a spouse...

Bawal:
A worried friend of mine complained bitterry to me that he is not happy that his weight keeps dropping since he got married 12 years ago till date as shown above nstead of going up or atleast even to maintain the former range and he is unhappy the way he looks so skinny that this is not his former self.

He mentioned that he do notice added weight when may be travelled for work purposes that may warrant him staying alone for some months.Though marital stress,lack of peace, quarrelsome with the partner,too much financial burden,lack of money, etc are not left out on his explanation.

Please for the married,we use to hear HAPPILY MARRIED,should a man suppose to be adding or losing weight when he is married or look healthier than when single.Please advice and share your opinion/experience.

Your friend married a knife, a surgical knife for that matter...not a wife!

DoubleBliss:
Any mother will be in serious pain when day break and she cannot provide food for her children. My 3 kids of 6, 4 and a year+ have been hungry because I cannot provide for them. Each time I look at them, tears drop from my eyes. Their father works as a school bus driver in a private school but hasn't been paid for 4 months now due to family issues after the death of the proprietor of the school. Fulani herdsmen also destroyed our cassava and yam farm last year/even this year and this is where we normally make Garri from both for sell and eating. I know fake people have ruin chances for genuine help seekers but if you need proofs, I'm ready to show to you. As I'm typing this, the last thing I cooked which is beans, I had to go round to gather woods which I used as firewood cos no kerosene, no gas in the house. No hope of what is going to be our next meal please tomorrow morning. 1k, 2k, 5k or any amount will give us what to eat. 20k can start me plantain business if anyone is willing to help me. God bless the hand that giveth.

Good morning, thanks for your care. I called the hospital this morning, I was told you haven't called them. Let me know when you paid. They have my number, they can call me when you paid. Thanks and God bless you.

I have paid for the registration. Please go and see the doctor. May God heal you.
